    Magnetite liked post by Marty Henry On thread : 284 win slow speeds
    Micky Duck It always amuses me a bit when there's a post about disappointing velocity along with " I've had the barrel cut down to xx" Doing this with a cartridge optimized for a 22 or longer barrel...

    Magnetite liked post by Norway On thread : Wind reading accuracy while hunting
    Don't use Beaufort for shooting, it is utterly useless for that. You can get far without a Kestrel. Shooters that sink their skill into Kestrels and calculators tend to miss out on practical...

    Magnetite liked post by Tentman On thread : Wind reading accuracy while hunting
    ^^ The above comments about wind are a perfect example of why misses occur. You cannot see wind, only indicators of it. Wind is 3 dimensional, just ask any experienced sailor. Its like a big...

    Magnetite liked post by kruza On thread : Wind reading accuracy while hunting
    Wind is a standard calculation in any shot. Wind can affect a shot at small distances too. Though i agree stalking is a most useful skill to have, so is knowing where your gun shoots in the wind....

    Magnetite liked post by Gerardo On thread : Recommendation for digital scales.
    All scales that are not magnetic force restoration scales (e.g And and Sartorious), and are strain guage scales (basically all the rest of the digital ones out there) will give some level of drift or...

    Magnetite liked post by wanneroo On thread : Wanting to learn to reload but don't want to spend around 1500 to get into it
    I didn't have much money when I started and didn't know if I was going to like reloading so I started with a $30 Lee Hand Press, a $20 Lee perfect powder measure and a few other bits and bobs. It...

    Magnetite liked post by grandpamac On thread : No more powder
    A post on a Forum proves nothing. Show me the original information from Hodgdons. Still nothing on their website. GPM.

    Magnetite liked post by Hermitage On thread : Why My Deer Cartridge is Better than Yours
    Now on this Friday night (after a few beers), I just want to tell you all that my favourite NZ deer cartridge is so vastly superior to yours that I will preach its virtues at the top of my lungs at...

    Magnetite liked post by ebf On thread : Drop Chart and Ballistic Solver Sign Conventions
    Magnetite, there aren't really any industry wide conventions or standards. Scopes don't all dial the same. Several euro scopes dial the opposite way than some of the US ones. Ballistic solvers...
